This article is about creating a tabbed user interface in a MediaWiki installation.

Single Page

If all the content you want to display in a tabbed interface lives on a single page, then the UI is accomplished using the Extension:HeaderTabs extension:

Some content for the first tab

Something really exciting is here in the second tab.

Wow, we're on to tab 3 now.

In conclusion, I'd like to thank all the tabs for their work in creating this formidable display of jQuery Tabs in a Wiki.


Multiple Page

Another method involves connecting multiple pages together into a wizard or tutorial with a tabbed navigation. An example of this latter technique is the series of pages at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Tutorial

The interface for this technique involves using the page tabs template and the result looks like this:

Introduction Page 2 Page 3 Wrap-up
